Pulled pork in under 2 hours with only 15 minutes effort and 4 ingredients! Shh... it is so good they will never know you weren't slaving in the kitchen... Or you can choose to fix it 'n forget using a slow cooker method. Either way, it will only take you about 15 minutes hands-on time.
What Makes This Recipe Special?
- This is a perfect recipe for serving a crowd. It makes a lot and doesn't need a lot of attention.
- You can influence the dish with the BBQ sauce you use. You can use any good-quality BBQ sauce. Use one that appeals to you - Spicy, with Bourbon or Whiskey, or add a couple of Tbsps of bourbon or whiskey to the one you have.
- You can make this in one pot using a multicooker. You all know how much I love my Nesco Pressure Cooker. Check out how it compares to other popular brands here.
Ingredients and Substitutions
- Pork -- I used a pork loin roast with a generous fat cap. You do want a bit of a marbled cut so the pork will be moist. You could also use pork shoulder.
- BBQ sauce- the sauce is what sets the tone for the final flavour, so take your pick! Japanese style, Southern style, add a tablespoon of bourbon or whiskey to a spicy sauce, or go with something fruity like my Bourbon Rhubarb BBQ sauce.
How To Make It
- Brown your roast to add a depth of flavour.
- Then pour the ½ BBQ sauce and water over the roast and set to pressure cook for 75 minutes. The recipe says to let it release its pressure naturally, which can take 15-20 minutes. Then transfer the meat to a platter and shred it with 2 forks. Warm the remaining BBQ sauce and stir through the meat.
- Alternatively, you can cook the roast in a slow cooker 4 hours on high or 7 hours on low.
- You can use the Keep warm function to keep it all heated through.
- Enjoy this on a toasted Kaiser bun with a side of slaw or corn on the cob!
